Metformin as adjunct antituberculosis therapy.

Sci. Transl. Med. 6(263) , 263ra159, (2014)

The global burden of tuberculosis (TB) morbidity and mortality remains immense. A potential new approach to TB therapy is to augment protective host immune responses. We report that the antidiabetic drug metformin (MET) reduces the intracellular growth of Myc...

Identification and mechanosensitivity of viscerofugal neurons.

Neuroscience 225 , 118-29, (2012)

Enteric viscerofugal neurons are interneurons with cell bodies in the gut wall; they project to prevertebral ganglia where they provide excitatory synaptic drive to sympathetic neurons which control intestinal motility and secretion. Here, we studied the mech...

[Participation of proteinkinase CK2 in regulation of human erythrocytes plasma membrane redox system activity: relative contribution of ca(2+)-dependent and ca(2+)-independent mechanisms of its activation].

Ukr. Biokhim. Zh. 84(5) , 55-61, (2012)

Involvement of protein kinase CK2 (2.7.11.1) in modulation of live cells trans-plasma membrane electron transport was first discovered. Using human erythrocytes a decrease of plasma membrane redox system (PMRS) activity is shown under the action of specific p...

Acetylcholine induces Ca2+ signaling in chicken retinal pigmented epithelial cells during dedifferentiation.

Am. J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 296 , C1195-206, (2009)

Retinal pigmented epithelial cells exchange their cellular phenotypes into lens cells and neurons, via depigmented and non-epithelial-shaped dedifferentiated intermediates. Because these dedifferentiated cells can either revert to pigmented epithelial cells o...

Application of human stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes in safety pharmacology requires caution beyond hERG.

J. Mol. Cell. Cardiol. 52(5) , 998-1008, (2012)

Human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hESC-CM) have been proposed as a new model for safety pharmacology. So far, a thorough description of their basic electrophysiology and extensive testing, and mechanistic explanations, of their overall pro-arr...

The effects of L type calcium channels on the electroencephalogram recordings in WAG/RIJ rat model of absence epilepsy.

Eur. Rev. Med. Pharmacol. Sci. 17(9) , 1149-54, (2013)

Epilepsy is one of the most important central nervous system disorder and 1% of the total world population suffers from this disorder which require a chronic drug treatment. Most of the researchers suggested that excessive calcium entry into neurons is the ma...

Vasodilation and hypotension of CZ454, an analogue of lacidipine through inhibiting extracellular calcium influx.

Arzneimittelforschung 62(9) , 439-45, (2012)

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of an analogue of lacidipine, CZ454 in in vitro and in vivo. The isometric tension of Sprague-Dawley rat arterial ring segments was recorded by a myography system. Intracellular calcium of vascular smooth musc...

An L-type calcium channel agonist, bay K8644, extends the window of intervention against ischemic neuronal injury.

Mol. Neurobiol. 47(1) , 280-9, (2013)

Our previous data indicate that the inhibition of L-type calcium channels (LTCCs) might be the cause of post-ischemic neuronal injury and that the activation of LTCCs can give rise to neuroprotection. In the present study, we aimed to profile the intervention...

The slow afterhyperpolarization: a target of β1-adrenergic signaling in hippocampus-dependent memory retrieval.

J. Neurosci. 33(11) , 5006-16, (2013)

In rodents, adrenergic signaling by norepinephrine (NE) in the hippocampus is required for the retrieval of intermediate-term memory. NE promotes retrieval via the stimulation of β1-adrenergic receptors, the production of cAMP, and the activation of both prot...

Alpha2C-adrenoceptors play a prominent role in sympathetic constriction of porcine pulmonary arteries.

Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch. Pharmacol. 385(6) , 595-603, (2012)

Enhanced pulmonary vasoconstriction in response to injuries of the central nervous system and hypoxia result in pulmonary edema due to increased sympathetic activation. This study aimed to characterize α(2)-adrenoceptor (AR)-mediated responses in porcine pulm...
